Clover is definitely supported but the OS X installer can't see (all of) your usb ports yet.

The solution is here http://www.tonymacx86.com/el-capitan-laptop-support/173616-guide-10-11-usb-changes-solutions.html
Read it and change what applies to your situation regarding USB hub naming in your DSDT (EHCI or EHC1 etc).
To do that, you have to go through http://www.tonymacx86.com/el-capitan-laptop-support/152573-guide-patching-laptop-dsdt-ssdts.html first.

Good luck...

In the case of a problem...

Boot verbose, show photo. Post EFI/Clover folder as ZIP (omit 'themes' folder).

Your config.plist is not correct for the hardware in your profile.

Hardware in profile is HD3000 (Sandy Bridge), but this config.plist is for Skylake hardware. It doesn't make any sense.

Also, Clover/kexts/Other and drivers64UEFI are not per guide.

Also, no verbose photo was provided.
